@deandjay11 the dark blue one.

@minglestop not really, for that you can be good just by taking off the fuse. you dont need to unplug your negative wire.

I Have A Radio Harness, What wire does the Amp wire go connected to ?

@DRAKOoism

Noted, so if I need to remove an amp, the steps are this: Disconnect Negative Terminal, Remove Fuse from holder - remove Amp from Power wire - Install New Amp(s) - Install Fuse in Holder - Connect Negative Terminal.

@minglestop

because if by any chance the power cable touches any metal area anywhere in your car it can cause a short and damage things or you can get really shocked lol

[minglestop]

Why can't you just leave the fuse in the holder if the negative is disconnected already?

@swiffblastin u could short ur car electrical system and that would fry ur car's starter/car's computer/etc...
